Summary
Out on the deck, the sun is so bright Carlos has to shield his eyes from the blinding reflections dancing on the deep blue of the lake.
"So beautiful," Jannik says. He has come to stand right behind him to look over his shoulder, but Carlos doesn't need to look to know his exact position, the exact scrunch of Jannik's face in studious awe as he contemplates the lake.
A part of him always knows exactly where Jannik is, a part of him always tries to figure out exactly what he's thinking. Years of playing Jannik have left their mark, and now Carlos couldn't erase the knowledge even if he tried.
He ignores the warmth pooling in his belly.
After Wimbledon, both Carlos and Jannik only want to go somewhere no one knows them, where they can have a real holiday. When Juanki offers Carlos his holiday home, he invites Jannik along for some time away from the spotlight.
Away from prying eyes, will they become closer than ever? And what will happen when the world of social media notices their absence?

Summary
They'd both known it would come. It was as Marge had said the evening before, they'd all kissed each other hundreds of times - as part of productions, or drunkenly, or just because.
Bucky hadn't thought further about the fact that he would have to kiss Gale for this production, because he'd assumed it would be easy. If he had to choose anyone to kiss in front of a crowd of hundreds of people every night, why would he not choose his best friend?
In their last term at Dellecher Classical Conservatory, Bucky and Gale get cast as the lead roles in one of Shakespeare's least staged problem plays: Troilus & Cressida. If the play is a success, they could be discovered as emerging talent and change their lives forever.
But as Gale grapples with the pressure of potential and Bucky has to come to terms with the fact that the best time of their lives is coming to an end, the lines between actors and characters begin to blur - and they need to figure out if they are only lovers while on stage...

Summary
It had gone like this: They'd played with fire - brilliant, exhilarating fire - until they got burnt.
You work hard enough trying to find a criminal who matches your brilliance and you just might find one.

Sie ließ ihr Armband einmal um ihr Handgelenk kreisen und sah Faber nicht an.
„Ja, wat machen wir denn dann noch hier? Das glauben Se doch selbst nicht, dass der Pawlak das ohne Sie hinkriegt.“--

Summary
Adam trug nicht zu der schleppenden Unterhaltung zwischen Pia und der Personalleiterin bei.
Das war sie also - die Frau, die wusste, wie Leos Meinung nach ihre Beziehung zueinander aussah.
Er hätte Leo natürlich einfach selbst fragen können, was genau er bei der Personalabteilung angegeben hatte. Aber das Problem war, dass Adam einfach nicht einfallen wollte, wie er das Gespräch am besten anfing. Oder eher, wie er das Gespräch so plante, dass er nicht alle seine Fragen selbst beantworten konnte.
Nach einem "Vorfall" in einer Saarländer Behörde sind alle Beziehungen zwischen Polizeibeamten bei der zuständigen Personalabteilung zu melden.
Die neue Personalleiterin hat Leos Team im Visier: Zwei junge Männer, zwei junge Frauen, alle ledig, das glaubten die doch selbst nicht. Jetzt muss sie nur noch herausfinden, welche der Frauen mit welchem Mann zusammen war...

Summary
summer 51' - After an *embarrassingly* public disagreement with Satelite-Officer Jean Vicquemare, Lieutenant Kim Kitsuragi is assigned as Double-Yfreitor Harry Du Bois's permanent partner. As Detective Du Bois contends with his feelings towards the Lieutenant - now unavoidable due to their constant close proximity - Lieutenant Kitsuragi must tackle the startling resemblance that his new partner holds to a previous partner, and dear dead friend.
Spring 46' - When three little bodies wash up on the bank of the Esperance, Lieutenant Dominique Conduvoir of the 57th's Homicide Division requests the liaison of Juvenile Crime's most experienced officer: Detective Kim 'pinball' Kitsuragi. What *should* have been a temporary partnership - not only launches Kim down his desired career path - but entangles both men in a Moralintern conspiracy that drives rot deep into the heart of Revachol.
Winter 52' - More children are pulled from the Esperance.
Chapters alternate between Harry in the 'present' day and Kim in the past, this is an Eyes fic so obvious warning for major character death.

Summary
Kim feels for the Satellite Officer. It’s clear what he’s been through, what Harry has subjected him to over the last few years - Kim only knows the half of it, of course, but he’s seen it before, hermit-cops pushing everyone away, their partner last man standing at the bombsite. Still, it feels cruel to punish this person for it, this wiped-clean, remade Harry, looking at Kim now like a bottle-fed animal about to be released into the wild. If Kim does go to the 41st, navigating all this will be an extra layer of complexity. He should think very carefully about it - about whether it’s worth getting mixed up in all of it. The mess.
A slow-burn, Kim-POV story about going to the 41st, against his better judgement.

Summary
Harry finds himself in the liminal space between Martinaise and actually having to be Harry Du Bois again. He needs to return to his apartment, and his job, and his life, but the prospect is terrifying; everything that was once him is everything he can't allow himself to be ever again. Kim helps him make the transition, and Harry pines wildly over him. They eat food and talk about the homo-sexual underground. Harry tries not to cry a lot.
